Emperor Yongzheng

Chapter 62: The foolish governor covered up his crime and violated the country's constitution.
"Master Tu," Tian Wenjing stopped in front of the partition as soon as he entered the flower hall, "I have caused a lot of trouble, right?" Tu Lichen also stopped, staring at the knife-like wrinkles on Tian Wenjing's bronzed face, After a long time, Fang sighed: "Why are you doing this? Nuo Min's political achievement was approved by the late emperor when he was here, and today he is issued an edict calling him 'the number one minister in the world'. You know the temper of the Long Live Lord very well." Tian Wenjing was silent. He smiled and said, "That's why I dared to get into this trouble." He raised his head and glanced at Tu Lichen, "I ask you to talk alone because I want you to help me.Because last year Li Fu came to Beijing from Fengtian to report on his duties. He once said about the general, saying that although you are young, you are a unparalleled national soldier. "

Li Fu and Tu Lichen knew each other. In the 42nd year of Kangxi, he was a Jinshi. He distributed the magistrate of Qitaihe County in Heilongjiang Province and transferred it to the magistrate of Nenjiang.When Tu Lichen was stationed in Mucheng, the army's salary could not be supplied. Li Fu pointed out that he saved Tu Lichen's urgent need by hoarding [-] shi of grain.The two have become close friends, and they never thought they had a connection with Cao Tianwenjing, who was born in the household department in front of him.Seeing Tu Lichen's surprise, Tian Wenjing smiled lightly and said, "Li Fu and I are from the same imperial examination, and we exchange posts as brothers... I invite you here, not to talk about personal relationships, but to talk about justice. This time, Tian Wenjing and Shanxi Corrupt officials in a province are enemies, please help me, general."

"Master Tian," Tu Lichen said with a frown, "Nuo Min has always had a good official reputation, and he has just been commended by grace. You also admit that the treasury's bank accounts match, so why seal the treasury?" Tian Wenjing sneered: "Nuo Min Pretend to invite favors, the late emperor was too old to notice, but now he is eager to recover the silver taels owed by the provinces, and wants to set an example, so there is no time to investigate. General Tu, the deficit case is a big malpractice in the Xi Dynasty. The current emperor, Prince Yong, and the thirteenth elder brother, Prince Yi, have been in charge of the household department to clean it up. After nearly 20 years of tossing, the prince was abolished, the thirteenth master was banned by a high wall, and the deficit is still deficient! What is Nuomin's ability? Clean it up within a few days? And don't wrong the former officials, don't implicate the current officials, and falsely report credit, it's too much!" Tu Lichen bit his lip and muttered: "You said this, I have been thinking carefully all the way to Shanxi. But now that the evidence is conclusive, there is nothing to be done.”

Tian Wenjing smiled gloomyly, and said: "If Nuo Min had nothing outstanding, she wouldn't be able to become a feudal official after ten years of Jinshi. I sealed the treasury, posted notices, and transferred the money of the vassal. Get the evidence!"

"I don't quite understand..."

"Why don't you understand this?" Tian Wenjing said with a sinister smile, "There are only more than [-] silver taels in the treasury, and the rest are borrowed!"

Tu Lichen trembled: "Borrowed! Such a large amount, where did it come from?" Tian Wenjing said: "Don't forget that this is Shanxi. Haven't you heard the saying 'Shanxi old man can make money'? Shanxi merchant Caixiong The world, these masters have a lot of money! The governor opened his mouth to borrow money, and the treasury was mortgaged, and the money was charged at interest, and he was afraid that he would not be able to raise more than 200 million silver? I sealed the treasury, issued a notice to clean up the accounts, and all the overdue money was shipped to the south of the Yangtze River—— Just look at this move! Nuo Min is stunned today, and anyone who takes the IOU to the treasury to raise money in the morning will be crushed! The day I get the IOU is the date of death of this 'No. [-] Minister in the World'!" Tuli Chen suddenly realized, looked Tian Wenjing up and down and said, "You are such a character! This trick is so ruthless. It's considered exhaustive, how can I help?"

"You must know that this is Taiyuan." Tian Wenjing's eyes shone brightly under the lamp, and he gritted his teeth tightly and said, "Nuo Min is definitely not the only one who offended me. I affirm that there are no good officials in Shanxi! Tomorrow the Governor's Yamen A secret decree was spread out, and the yamen of the local government, the leading yamen of Taiyuan City Gate, and the prefectures and counties of Taiyuan all emptied out to intercept the debt collectors. If I can't get any evidence within three days, Nuo Min dares to ask the king to order a flag to kill me at the gate. Besides, how can Tian Wenjing not be surprised?"

Tu Lichen nodded and said: "I can save it. I will help you with the rest. However, I only give you one day. If you can't get the evidence, I won't save Nuo Min if she kills you." After that, he didn't wait for Tian Wenjing to answer. Turn around and leave the flower hall.Seeing Nuo Min sitting and waiting on the table, she walked over and sat down with the hem of her robe lifted, but she didn't say a word, just lost in thought.

"Master Tu, Tian Wenjing..."

Nuo Min leaned over and just asked a question, Tu Lichen waved his hand and said softly: "It's late at night, please settle down, my lords, and then I have something to discuss with Prime Minister Nuo Zhong." Nuo Min understood, stood up and bowed , said in a loud voice: "Tonight or any other day, there will be no more good nights. But thousands of miles of long sheds, there are always banquets-please settle down, the road is exhausted! Well, during the Lantern Festival, there are no less than [-] tourists in the provincial capital. If something goes wrong, wouldn’t I, Nuo Min, add another crime? So I have to bother you guys from the inspector’s yamen and Taiyuan prefectures and counties. Don’t pass this festival, and sit in the yamen day and night. If there is an errand, the brotherhood will notify you in time. " After saying that, he bowed again, and everyone got up to leave one after another.Tian Wenjing also came out and bowed away.

"Master Nuo, please!" Tu Lichen let Nuo Min into the flower hall, and the two sat on the warm earth dragon next to the charcoal stove as guest and host.Tu Lichen's young and handsome face stared at the blazing flames of the brazier, and he said for a long time: "I tell you the truth, I haven't figured out what happened tonight. The Holy Majesty transferred me back to Beijing from Fengtian. He summoned me on the same day and asked me I am willing to let go of my post, but I still want to stay in Beijing as an official. I said, when it comes to the word loyalty, what is the name of the emperor, I can only learn to do it. When it comes to the word "heart", I am the one-armed general Zhang Yuxiang. I would rather be a fighter on the battlefield with one knife and one gun. The errands that pass the decree are confused!" After finishing speaking, he patted his forehead and sighed deeply, and said: "Heilongjiang is better...the trees are tall and dense, bears, tigers, deer, rabbits, roe deer, yellow sheep, you can play as you want. How to play... what is this?"

Nuo Min originally wanted to say a few words, asked Ming Tian Wenjing and Tu Lichen what they were talking about, sent the brat to rest early, and then arranged to intercept the businessman's debt collection, seeing Tu Lichen's posture of a long conversation, he couldn't help feeling anxious , I had no choice but to comfort him patiently: "This is why the emperor loves you! You became a second-class bodyguard at such a young age, only when the late emperor was there He was a Han Chinese, and later made clothes for Zhengbai Banner in Manzhou. He served as Kangxi's companion and imperial guard. Three generations of his father and son, he worked as a weaver in Jiangning for 60 years. Kangxi made six southern tours and four times. His family. He has the right to report to Kangxi secretly, and is the eyes and ears of the emperor. Because of his association with the Yun Group and other crimes, he was dismissed by Yongzheng and confiscated and sent to prison. He is the grandfather of Cao Xueqin, the author of "Dream of Red Mansions". Three, in the future The future is by no means something that I, Nuo Min, can look up to. Tian Wenjing is so presumptuous tonight, not only does he not take me seriously, even the general doesn't care..." "Don't talk about him, I will get bored when I see him!" Tu Lichen smiled secretly, and cut off Nuo Min's words with a wave of his hand, "Just now I thought he had some serious and important business, and I wanted to see him in private, but he hesitated when I saw him, as if he was afraid that I would take some credit from him! I have nothing good to say to him , I said, "If you want to say it, you have to say it. If you don't want to say it, I'm impatient to listen. I didn't think much of your "credit" at first!" Zhongcheng blocked the businessman who used the IOU to collect debts. I heard it funny, "Nuo Zhongcheng is the moon in the sky, and he is clearly an upright person. How could he do such a thing? You are so tricky and mean, and you judge a gentleman with a villain's heart." Belly!'——Don’t you think so?” After finishing speaking, he stared at Nuo Min.Nuo Min felt weak from the young general's aggressive gaze, so she nodded repeatedly and said, "Of course, he has a villain's heart!" Knowing that it was the fourth watch, Nuo Min's heart sank again, while listening to Tu Lichen's bragging about his military exploits, he secretly made up his mind to go out alone.In desperation, a book office in the signing room came in, looked at Tu Lichen, and said in a murmur, "Zhongcheng, Mr. Hu and Mr. Sha are here to worship!"

"Okay, I'll come right away." Nuo Min stood up and said with a smile, "The general's heroism is admirable! In this way, you sit first, and I will come as soon as I go."

Tu Lichen took a sip of tea, smiled and asked the secretary office: "It's weather in the morning and evening, what's the matter with them?" The lamp shed of the Guanyin Temple in the west of the city caught fire and burned down several shops. The people in the shop got annoyed and killed two buyers of lamps. Thousands of people gathered around to watch. Afraid of accidents, they came to invite Zhongcheng to make a constitutional decree."

"Is this okay?" Nuo Min pretended to be panicked and said, "Last year, during the Lantern Festival, two people were squeezed to death in Chengdu, Sichuan. Beheaded. Due to the occurrence of the Nian case, he was reused. He served as the Minister of the Ministry of War, the governor of Zhili, and the Minister of State Affairs. The bribery case was executed and the prison waiter was executed. Qianlong succeeded to the throne and was released. He almost took off the crown—not because of the death of two people, but if there are traitors who take the opportunity to make trouble, how should we deal with it?——You first ask Geshha on the door to sign the bond room to get it I fired my command arrow and went to the Guanyin Temple to disperse the onlookers. I'm going to see Hu Sha!" He stamped his feet and left.Tu Lichen's eyes swept away, and the two followers immediately followed with their swords.Nuo Min took two steps, turned around and asked with a smile, "Master Tu, this—?"

Tu Lichen leaned back, frowned and said: "I have promised Tian that I will not leave Nuo Min every step of the way tonight and tomorrow, and I can't break my word."

"Are you going to detain me?"

"How dare you! Wherever you want to go and what kind of official duties you want to handle, you can do whatever you want. It's just that you have to have my people around!"

"You trust Tian Wenjing that much?"

Tu Lichen breathed a sigh of relief, sat up straight, shook his head and said with a smile: "No—how could I believe that bastard? But I don't dare to trust my lord completely. Jibu promises a thousand gold, and I promised Tian Wenjing." "You have to know, this is not your house!" Nuo Min smiled impatiently, "This is Shanxi Mansion! I am the official of the mansion, can you supervise without authorization? What if I refuse?" Tu Lichen said nonchalantly Said: "I know, you are still the 'No. [-] Fuchen in the World'! But I also have a nickname called 'Impermanence of the Jade Face'. No matter how strong you are, no matter whether you are a prince or grandson, nothing can stop you."

"Come on!" Nuo Min shouted like thunder, and dozens of Goshha of the governor's yamen snapped off their horseshoe sleeves, and responded like a thunder:
"exist!"

"Seal this flower hall!"

"tie!"

"slow!"

Tu Lichen stood up with a wave of his hands, and a dozen of his guards rushed in, standing with crossed hands near the south window lattice and listening to orders.In an instant, the confrontation inside and outside the flower hall, the two sides knocked their swords and glared at each other, and the air was so tense that it was about to explode.Tu Lichen pointed at his guards with his hands and said, "Take off all your coats!" The guards obeyed the order, without saying a word, each pulled their coats with a "嗤啦—" and tore off their coats with a sound, and stood up naked. .

"Master Nuo, come and take a look at them." Tu Lichen pointed to the shiny black haired chests of the guards, and saw that there were various spots on them, including knife scars, arrow scars, gun scars, fire scars... everyone had scars on their chests. More than twenty places, glowing dark red under the flickering candlelight, seem to be telling the owner's unusual experience.Nuo Min was in a daze, and Tu Lichen said leisurely: "There are thirteen people here, and the scars on each person's body are like a book. Come and read it!"

A gust of cold wind came in, and Nuo Min shivered shrewdly.

"It's all after hundreds of battles," Tu Lichen said calmly with no expression on his face, "The emperor ordered me to pick out from the ten thousand horse army to enrich the guards of the palace, also known as the 'sticky pole' guards. It is under the supervision of the emperor, the guards and the ministers. If I am an imperial envoy, I will not be able to explain what happened in front of you, or in front of them!"

Nuo Min didn't know about these details.But he had long heard that the current emperor had set up a "sticky pole" in his mansion as his guard.Hearing Tu Lichen's voice full of coercion, he took a peek at the courtyard, and saw the mist gradually rising in the twilight. If he didn't take any action, it would really be too late.Yin suddenly dared to resist and said: "You are talking nonsense here, I want to impeach you! At the beginning of the emperor's accession to the throne, the holy grandfather issued three edicts, annoyed that at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the factory guards harmed the country, and ordered the abolition of the secret supervisors. Isn't your "sticky pole place" a variant of the Thirteen Yamen? Knocking mountains and shaking tigers, bluffing threats, others are afraid of you, come to Shanxi to blackmail me, I am afraid that this way will not work! Although your steel knife is fast, it is difficult to kill me innocent man!"

"I originally thought you were innocent." Tu Lichen said with a livid face, "But now it seems that may not be the case. I also have something to tell you. Since you are afraid of others knowing, don't do anything at the beginning. I am fast with my sword and not afraid of my thick neck!" As for whether the 'Niangan Department' is the same type of agency as the East Factory and the West Factory, I don't know. You can talk to the emperor. I am not intervening in the official affairs of Shanxi Province as the Sticking Office. I am as the imperial envoy of Shanxi Province. Find out whether there is a deficit in Shanxi. If there is a deficit, why don't you tell the court the truth? If there is no deficit, you must also find out your political achievements, ask for commendation, and set an example for other provinces." He said, clasping his hands. Then he said: "The Holy Emperor is the one who cannot be bullied. You, Lord Nuomin, must understand this!" Tu Lichen raised his face and spoke at length about Yongzheng's establishment of the secret folding system to widen the ears and eyes and clarify the organization of the "sticking pole" Unlike the former Ming Dynasty guard agents, the emperor had been diligent in his administration since he came to power, and had worked hard at night to do all kinds of good governance... He talked for half an hour.Hu Daoyun and Sha Benji, who were waiting outside, were impatient. When they came to see him, Tu Lichen was talking nonstop, and they had no choice but to stand under the eaves and listen with frowning eyes.

Everyone was ignoring, when suddenly they heard a rooster crowing in the distance, and the sky was already dark. Tian Wenjing rushed into the flower hall with a lot of IOUs in one hand, waving his hands, and shouted wildly: "There is evidence! There is evidence!" It's gone! This time I took out your bezoar and dog treasure of corrupt officials in Shanxi!" When he saw Nuo Min, his face was already ashen, and he fell into the chair without saying a word.

Tu Lichen's memorial to the impeachment of Shanxi governor Nuo Min was handed into the upper study three days later.At this time, the Lantern Festival had just passed, and the letters of greetings from the governors, governors, feudal officials, and frontier officials were still being sent in a steady stream.Because of Yongzheng's instructions, the papers of greetings sent everywhere are not urgent, and they will only be read when there is spare time after the festival. The chapters, memorials, and impeachments of foreign officials should be read first.Originally, the Kangxi Dynasty had clearly stipulated that, except for the invitation papers, which could be covered with yellow silk, the rest of the memorials should be presented on plain paper.However, officials from other provinces adhered to the principle of "no matter how polite people are, no matter what they report to the emperor, they will always be wrapped in yellow silk."Zhang Tingyu, Ma Qi, and Long Kedo had no choice but to dismantle them one by one.The three study ministers have different seniority and different personalities.Zhang Tingyu was very reticent, and often did not say a word for a whole day.Long Kedo was born as a general, although he made up his mind to imitate the demeanor of the prime minister, but the word "temperament" is not something that can be changed overnight. He has no merit, and he goes out every now and then, sometimes saying that he wants to meet the people in the ministry to talk about things. For a while, I have to go to the toilet with feces and urine, and for a while I simply take a walk in the living room of the upper study room.Ma Qi has the most seniority. He has just been released from the prison of the Prison God Temple and entered the country's highest organ. Cang's broom eyebrows immediately twitched together.

"Hengchen, where did Tu Lichen work? I don't know this person!"

Zhang Tingyu, who was immersed in writing the summary, put down his pen, turned his face and said, "I don't know you well. He was a general under Fengtian General Zhang Yuxiang, and he was just transferred to Beijing not long ago." language.Long Kedo, who was pacing, came over to look at the booklet in Ma Qi's hand, and immediately took a breath, and said, "This Tu Lichen is really the leader of the [-]th team, the leader who makes trouble! You go to Shanxi to announce the decree, It’s enough to declare the decree, so what’s the point of meddling in local government affairs?”

"My brother didn't see it clearly." Ma Qi glanced at Longkodo. For some reason, he felt a little contemptuous of this uncle who held the power of the guards inside and outside the Nine Cities. "He is the chapter played by Daitian Wenjing!"

When Zhang Tingyu heard the word "Tian Wenjing", his eyes flickered imperceptibly. He got up and asked for the copy in Ma Qi's hand, and said, "This copy is important. I won't transcribe the abridged version. "The original Zhecheng didn't say anything." Long Kedo laughed, "We also have to have an idea. Nuo Min is a model governor who has just been commended by grace. This stick has been swept away and turned into a 'fake meritorious service. Mo officials who are corrupt and illegal, can't get off the emperor's face? Also, there is no good person in Hongdong County in the book that tells the officials of Shanxi Tong Province that they are "traitors on the outside and on the outside". Won’t it cause shock? If you don’t want to fix these things, the emperor asks, is it okay if we don’t have an opinion?”

"Thank you for taking care of me." Ma Qi sat up and took a sip of tea, "Master Long's words are indeed old-fashioned. However, there are different departments in the study room. It has always been called the emperor's consultant, and we have not decided on it." An example of a joint playbook!"

Of these two people, one regarded himself as the chief minister and asked the leader to go to the study.If one doesn't buy it, they must each be responsible to the emperor.What a shrewd and deep person Zhang Tingyu is?Naturally, he understood as soon as he heard it, but he refused to interrupt.Holding only the manuscript, he bowed his head and frowned in thought.Long Kedo still wanted to speak, but when he saw Prince Lian Yun bringing eunuch He Zhu'er in, he changed his tune and said, "Baye, you just came down from His Highness Yangxin?"

"Well," Yun smiled and nodded, standing in the middle of the hall and said, "You three, Wansui has an order for you to come over. Nian Gengyao came to Beijing from Shaanxi to report on his duties, and Wansui wants to discuss the military in the west." After finishing speaking, he walked up to Zhang Tingyu, Patted Zhang Tingyu on the shoulder and said: "Heng Chen, take care of your bones, you are tired enough from hundreds of secret folders. The emperor just said that Tingyu didn't sleep for five hours in the past three days, so she might not be able to come here today." On duty, I didn't want you to come in anyway." After finishing speaking, he sighed and gave up his hand very gracefully, and the four of them left their seats one after another and left the upper study room, rushing towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Emperor Yongzheng was sitting cross-legged on the big kang in the East Nuan Pavilion of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, receiving General Nian Gengyao from Fuyuan.Incense smoke curled up from the imperial furnace, and the charcoal fire in the huge smoked cage and gilded enamel tripod made the hall warm.As soon as the four of them came in, they immediately felt that the cold air had been driven away from their bodies.Seeing them come in to salute, Yongzheng just nodded slightly, and said, "Nian Gengyao is playing the military in the west. You family members should also listen together—you continue to talk."

"yes".Nian Gengyao sat on the carved porcelain pier, bowed slightly, and said eloquently: "The reason why Lobu Zang Tenzin dared to despise the imperial court, called himself a prince, occupied Tibet and annexed Qinghai, did not refer to the pacification of the Tibetan chaos in the past. Credit is shared. What he relies on today is his long-time enemy, Allah Butan. Last year alone, Allah Butan donated 5 taels of gold and four hundred muskets to Rob Zangtenzin. Recently, he sent a secret letter to Allah Butan , will meet at Chahan Tuoluohai, prepare to restore the title of Great Khan, and discard the title of the celestial court. Alabutan runs from west to east, and Rob Zang Tenzin goes from south to north, and jointly attack Prince Chahan Danjin and Erdeni County. The king's tribe is in a situation where Qinghai will not give up. Therefore, the emperor's decision to use troops against Luobu Zangdanzeng is really in line with God's will and the people's will..."

Among the four people who just came in, Longkodo saw Nian Gengyao for the first time.In the past, Emperor Yongzheng's Longqian vassal residence only knew that Prince Yong had a protege, Nian Gengyao, who was an admiral outside. There is no distinction between men, women, old and young in the town, and all dogs are killed.At that time, Longkodo was the supervisory censor in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and he had impeached Nian Gengyao with the Ertai Lianzhang. Years later, each of them changed their identities and unexpectedly met here.Longkodo sighed secretly, and couldn't help but look carefully at this young general who was full of heroism.

Nian Gengyao was wearing a gown of nine pythons and five claws, and a coat made of cranes. On his black and red Chinese character face, a pair of tiger eyes were piercing, and two thick black silkworm eyebrows were raised slightly, carrying a rough and wild look.The person who has already looked at fifty, the braids that are slicked with oil are not visible, and almost hang down from the back of the head to the ground, the snow-white horseshoe sleeves are turned up, and the tower-like body is sitting firmly in front of Yong. Than, very clean and tidy.Longkodo couldn't help thinking to himself, would such a person be a "fierce god" as people say?Does he still remember that bit of grudge back then?Just as he was thinking wildly, he heard Yongzheng say, "Liang Gong, how many soldiers do you really have on hand? I can't believe the number said by the Ministry of War. Now every big battalion is empty, and the world is as dark as old birds, so I don't care about it. But I have made up my mind to use the army, and there must be no falsehood about the war, I want to know the truth."

"Responding to the master's words," Nian Gengyao replied loudly with a slight bow, "there are actually 73 soldiers under the control of the slaves, which is in line with the actual number reported by the Ministry of War. The slaves are the ones the master personally adjusted. Don't dare to act recklessly outside, let alone eat empty quota, please rest assured, master!"

Yongzheng stared at Nian Gengyao with his dark pupils, nodded and said, "I can trust you. But Lobu Zang Tenzin is known as one hundred thousand cavalry, and they have been fighting in the northwest for many years. They are all fine, tough and difficult to control, so you should not underestimate the enemy!"

"Yes, the master's hadith, the slave should obey it carefully!"

"I want to send more troops to you." Yongzheng probably sat cross-legged for too long, moved his body, put on his blue satin and soapy boots and got off the kang, pacing around with his hands behind his back. After a long time, he turned to Longkodo and said, "You Posted that all the soldiers and horses stationed in the four provinces of Shanxi, Shaanxi, Sichuan, and Yunnan will be controlled by Nian Gengyao." Longkodo hurriedly bowed and replied: "Yes!" "Also," Yongzheng bowed his head and thought for a while, then said slowly, " Yanxin, the Pingni General who was stationed in Yulin, had 5 troops under his command, and asked him to bring his own military pay to move to Gansu and be dispatched by Nian Gengyao. In this way, Nian Gengyao actually had 23 to [-] troops, which was almost enough. "

Yongzheng said something, and Long Kedo bowed and agreed, and said: "The military and horse restraint of each province has always been inspected and coordinated by the Ministry of War. When the country uses troops, foreign generals should have the right to intervene. Mobilize, so as not to have different military orders and hinder each other?"

"Well," Yongzheng nodded, "I'll just follow your opinion. Nian Gengyao, it's none of your business here. There is only one sentence, Kangxi used troops in the west in 57 years, and we suffered a big loss. [-] None of the Shandong disciples will survive. The imperial court really can’t afford to lose, so at least you can win back this face for your master!"

"tie!"

Nian Gengyao got up from his seat and knelt down on the ground. After listening with his face up, he kowtowed three times neatly, and promised loudly: "The slave will definitely make meritorious service in the west for the master to see!"

"You kneel down. Your thirteenth master set up water and wine for you in the mansion. He is also well versed in the art of war. Let's talk about it. Go!" Yongzheng said, waving his hands.When Nian Gengyao bowed and withdrew, Yongzhengfang turned his face and said with a smile: "You have been standing for half a day in vain. You can't take care of these things, but it's good for you to listen—how about it? Is it appropriate to deal with it this way?"

Yun listened silently.With all his heart, he wanted Yun to go back and bring this soldier, so as to dispel his delusions, but he was unwilling, and after thinking for a long time, Fang smiled and said: "Long live the holy heart, it has been done perfectly. But according to my brother "Although Nian is a capable member, he is not qualified enough. With the rise of the army, the food and salaries have to be sent from the southeastern provinces. I am afraid that Nian Gengyao will not be able to command well. Do you want Long Live to make an order that the fourteenth brother will sit in Beijing to raise the salary and send it to the big city?" camp, so that the food road will not be cut off. When the late emperor was there, he said many times that the war in the northwest was fought for food and money. Hearing this, he found it very reasonable, so he smiled and said, "I've thought about this a long time ago. The thirteenth and fourteenth brothers all have general talents, let him discuss this job with his brothers. You are right, Northwest What we fight for is money and food, if we are all like Shanxi Governor Nuo Min, and the treasury is full, what worries do I have?"

Zhang Tingyu and the three people couldn't help but look at each other after hearing this.Yun didn't know about Tu Lichen's memorial, so he replied with an apologetic smile: "That's what the master said. According to my brother's idea, I first raised 100 million taels of silver from the Shanxi vassal treasury to send to the labor force of Nian Gengyao's camp. The imperial court issued an order to reward him. Taking advantage of this momentum, we will pressure all localities to fill the national treasury deficit as quickly as possible!”

"Okay!" Yongzheng's eyes lit up, he turned to Zhang Tingyu and said, "You're just drafting an order!"

The three ministers looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't speak. It took Zhang Tingyu to kneel down for a long time, and said in a low voice, "Long live..."
